After they placed an order for their food, Luna and Yannie were swept away by their conversation before they noticed Gwen flipping everywhere as though searching for something.
"What's wrong?" Luna asked with a frown.
"I lost my pendant.” She placed her keychain on the table to show Luna that there was no pendant attached to it. "Luke bought it for me when we were sightseeing in a church in Merchant City. I don't know where I lost it."
She flipped through every pocket on her clothes and dug into her bag once again, her eyebrows squeezed together. "I can't find it, I swear."
Luna did not have the appetite to eat anymore, looking at how anxious and panicked Gwen was. She knew how important the pendant was to Gwen because it was a gift from the deceased Luke, and it was thus an irreplaceable gift.
Yannie also started to help Gwen search for it. The three women searched the entire restaurant, but they could not find it.
At that time, their food was served. Gwen sighed. "Maybe it fell off in The Spring Resort. Before we left, I was playing with the pendant while we were sitting on the sofa in the lobby discussing where to eat. Maybe it fell off then."
She got on her feet. "Don't wait for me."
"I'll go with you." Yannie quickly stood up when she saw Gwen stand up. "I have good eyesight. I can help you to look for it on the way back."
Gwen had really scared Yannie after she was found sleeping in the dumpster. It somewhat traumatized Yannie, so she was not about to let Gwen walk away by herself again.
"Don't worry.” Gwen pursed her lip. "I didn't drink any alcohol, and I won't sleep in the dumpster again."
"We believe in you." Luna pouted and put some food onto Gwen’s plate. "Let's have some food in our system first, and then we'll go search together."
